9 The Menues in Detail
9.1 Root Menu
The root menu is shown when the receiver has com-
pleted initialization after power-up.
With the four
arrow buttons and the buttons „OK“, „ESC“, „F1“ and
„F2“ the navigation and setting of parameters can be
managed.
Main menu can be reached by pressing
„ESC“ some times. The main menu reflect some of the
main parameters of the time server. First line shows
the name of the device and the status of the Reference
Clock (GPS). The text "GPS: NORMAL MODE" might
be replaced by "COLD BOOT", "WARM BOOT" or "UP-
DATE ALMANAC". If the antenna is disconnected or
not working properly, the text "ANTENNA FAULTY" is
displayed instead.
Current time and date of the timeserver with the name of the time zone (NTP uses UTC time zone) will be
monitored in the bottom line. If the "IGNORE LOCK" option is enabled an "*" will be shown behind the time.
The multicolor LEDs will reflect the current state of the device:
„Ref. Time“
green: the reference clock (e.g. integrated GPS) produce valid time.
red: the reference clock produce no valid time (e.g. not synchronized)
„Time Service“
green: NTP has been synchronized to reference clock.
red: NTP is not synchronous to reference clock or sync to „local clock“
„Network“

red: at least one of the watched network ports (look at „Setup Device
Parameter / Check Network Linkup“) is not connected
„Alarm“
